Detect MAC address on (remote) NIC ?

# DETECT #
I would like to read out - preferably written to a txt.log - the *burnt-in*
MAC-address of NICS, local or remote. For detecting NICS on an Internet-server,
I need to be able to detect which NIC is *locally* (inbound) connected (and
dump the address in the log) and which NIC is *publicly* (outbound) connected.

Is there software that is able to do this (detect + write to a txt.log) ?

# CONVERT #
Last but not least: how does one convert the MAC's hexadecimal XX:XX...-address
to an 0x1234567890AB address?

I need this for NetOp Remote Control so that I will be able to remotely reboot
the other machine (Wake on LAN MAC Address).

# NAT-router #
Last question: I use Kerio's NAT to issue addresses. I have 2 NICS in the
server, but I find 4 MAC-addresses. Which one do I choose as the one to reboot?

Then I have 2 PPP Adapters:
- 213.84.240.158 : this is my public IP address
- and another one, not linked to any address

This last ones are issued by the DHCP server of Kerio. The MAC-address
therefore is probably not *static*. Should I use the ELNK3 card linked to
10.0.0.150 as the MAC-address that is the one that will react on a remote
reboot command?
